A GERMAN LIFE now out with Bloomsbury in the UK!

»Exponents of Western liberal values should be even more frightened than we are already.« (Sunday Times)

»It's like everything else. Even beautiful things have stains. And terrible things have bright spots. It's not all black and white. There's always a bit of grey in both... During the time when I was working for Goebbels, of course he was one of the big bosses right at the top as far as I was concerned: for me he came just after Hitler. And the orders came to me from the Ministry, as they did for every soldier who fired at Russian, French or English soldiers, and that doesn't make them murderers. They were doing their duty.« (Brunhilde Pomsel in THE WORK I DID)

Bloomsbury Publishing calls it »compelling and unnerving. THE WORK I DID gives us intimate insight into political complexity at society's highest levels - at one of history's darkest moments.«
